Smiling for myself is hard
Smiling for myself?
Smiling for myself is unheard of
Smiling for others is what I know
Smiling at my failures to hide
Smiling to conceal the mistakes and regrets
Smiling when all I want is to cry
Smiling when I feel sad insideI wish I could smile for myself
Stop feeling sorry for myself
Speak louder for myself
Try harder for myself
Laugh for myself
Succeed for myself
Be only for myself
Love myselfIt's hard when I know I'm good
It's hard when I know I'm talented
It's hard when I know there's potential
It's hard when I know I should've done it
It's hard when I know I could've prevented it
It's hard when I know I had love
It's hard when I know I was supported
It's hard to smile for myself
